Explosion Proof Stanchion | 25 Degree Mount | Class 1 Div 2 | Class 2 Div 2

Product Overview

This explosion proof stanchion mount provides a fixed 25-degree angle for installing compatible explosion proof fixtures in hazardous locations. The bracket is designed specifically for use with our Explosion Proof EXPLA and Explosion Proof EXPLB fixture lines.

The stanchion measures 5.6 x 5.6 x 4.2 inches and carries UL844 certification for hazardous location use. It is rated for Class 1 Division 2 (Groups E, F, G) and Class 2 Division 1 (Groups A, B, C, D) environments.

Where This Product Fits Best

This stanchion is appropriate for facilities requiring angled fixture mounting in areas classified as Class 1 Division 2 or Class 2 Division 1 hazardous locations. These classifications cover environments where ignitable dust, fibers, or flammable gases may be present under abnormal conditions.

The 25-degree fixed angle positions the attached fixture downward from a vertical mounting surface, directing light output away from the wall plane. This configuration suits applications where fixtures must be wall-mounted but aimed toward work areas or aisles rather than straight out.

Performance and Functional Considerations

The stanchion itself does not affect the electrical or optical performance of the attached fixture. Its function is purely structural, holding the fixture at a consistent 25-degree offset from the mounting surface.

Compatibility is limited to the EXPLA and EXPLB explosion proof fixture series. Other fixtures, including non-explosion-proof models, are not supported by this bracket.

Installation and Long-Term Use

The stanchion mounts to a vertical surface and accepts the compatible explosion proof fixture at its output end. The 25-degree angle is fixed and not adjustable after installation.

Structural integrity in hazardous environments depends on proper fastening to a surface rated for the fixture and bracket weight. All connections within the hazardous area must comply with local codes and the fixture installation requirements.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Facilities use this stanchion when a wall-mounted explosion proof fixture needs to direct light downward or toward a specific zone rather than projecting straight out from the wall. The 25-degree tilt helps aim light onto walkways, equipment, or task areas positioned below or in front of the fixture.

Once installed, the bracket requires no adjustment or interaction. The fixture angle remains fixed, so aiming decisions are made during installation based on where light needs to land.
